PATZ1 and non-small cell lung carcinoma: However, by analyzing publicly available datasets through the R2: Genomic Analysis and Visualization platform [36], we confirmed, at the mRNA level in an independent cohort of 50 NSCLC (23 LUSCs; 27 LUAD) samples and paired non-tumor adjacent alveolar tissues [39], that PATZ1 is significantly overexpressed in tumor versus non-tumor tissues (Figure 2A).
